What is Key Press to Answer?

Choose what happens next with a simple click.

A message announces whether your call comes from any of your virtual numbers, or whether it’s a personal call. You can either take the call yourself by pressing any key to answer. Key Press to Answer has a lot in common with Call Announce. The main difference is that you only answer your call if you choose to press any key on your phone.

Why use Key Press to Answer?

When you know who’s calling, choosing what to do next is easy.

Find out who’s calling you

With all the important information at your fingertips, you’ll know where the call has come from, and you’ll be able to decide where the call goes next.

Choose how it’s answerede

A simple keypress lets you answer it yourself. Or you can forward the call on to a team member, or let it go to your personal or business voicemail. It’s totally up to you.

Stay in control

Avoid unnecessary interruptions. Only answer the most important calls so you can get more done. Use the technology to create boundaries that keep your business and personal lives separate.

How does it work?

You can decide when to answer or divert your calls.

Who uses Key Press to Answer?

For businesses who want to prioritise their time and calls.

Zintel Customer Case Study

Laura runs a small but busy real estate agency. All the calls to her 0800 number go to her mobile. Laura struggles to identify whether a call is business related (from the 0800 number) or personal. This means her work and personal messages can get muddled up. And she often misses important business calls because she isn’t always available to chat.

By using Key Press to Answer in conjunction with Call Overflow, Laura can now identify where her calls are coming from and whether they’re business related or personal. When Laura isn’t available to chat, the business calls ‘overflow’ to her agents’ mobiles. And if none of her agents are available, the calls are sent to Voice to Email so they can follow them up later.
